Legato NetWorker ClientPak for MPE/iX Installation Guide

Loading the NetWorker Software

This section describes how to load the NetWorker ClientPak for MPE/iX

software on a client with a local tape drive.

Before you load NetWorker, verify that your system recognizes the tape drive.

To load the software, follow these steps:

1. Log on as the system manager:

: HELLO MANAGER.SYS

2. Put the Legato NetWorker tape in the tape drive.

3. Set the following ﬁle equation:

: FILE T;DEV=TAPE

4. Restore the MPE/iX ﬁles from the product tape onto your system with the

following command:

: RESTORE *T;/legato;CREATE;TREE

After you load the software, you can install it.

Installing the NetWorker Software

This section describes how to install the Legato NetWorker software. You use

the NSRIZE command to install the NetWorker software. The installation

script provides pathnames for the locations of the software.

Remember, the disk must have 30 MB of space before you can install the

NetWorker software.

The installation script automatically creates a new MPE group, named

NETWRKR.SYS. The NETWRKR.SYS group has the following capabilities:

BA, IA, PM, MR, DS, PH.

The installation script gives you the option to create the group automatically

or manually. If you plan to install the group manually, see “Manually Creating

the MPE Group” (on page 10).

Daemons are programs that implement services. NetWorker has two daemons,

PORTMAP and NSREXECD. These two daemons allow a client to

communicate with the server. Clients must be running the NSREXECD

daemon for the server to back them up.

The NETWRKR.SYS group is a special group that only exists for the

NetWorker daemons. This separate group allows you to identify the daemons

in the SHOWJOB listing. This group also allows you to stop the daemon jobs.
